Robin D. Moore, Ph.D.

COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR

Dr. Robin Moore blends his scientific training with his passion for photography and storytelling to connect a broad audience with the urgency and opportunity for saving endangered species. Recognizing the importance of communications for challenging perceptions and changing behaviors, Robin has spearheaded innovative campaigns to raise the profile of too-often overlooked species.

The Search for Lost Frogs, a global quest to find species missing for decades, attracted significant media attention and inspired the book, In Search of Lost Frogs, which was named one of The Guardian’s best nature books of 2014. Robin is an award-winning photographer and Senior Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers. That visual storytelling is a powerful tool for conservation is illustrated by the role that Robin’s images and films played in overturning a decision by the Jamaican Government to develop the country’s largest protected area, home to some 20 globally endangered species including one of the rarest lizards in the world, the Jamaican Iguana.
